Bright bucket of sunshine
How I love you
Riding on Helios’s chariot
Evaporating all darkness
And things that dwell in it
Misery, Pain, Sorrow
Letting nothing but light into my life

I love you so much
So why do you treat me so badly
Hurt my skin if I try to bask in your glory too long
Giving the phrase “Too much of a good thing” true meaning
But still I return, skin darkened, pained by your warm touch
Letting no one know how awful you treat me

I do not like this childhood game of hide-in-seek you play
Dodging behind sky cotton and coming back out when you feel ready
I can see the jealousy that you are trying to create
I guess you want to see if I truly love you
So every time you return I try to give a smile showing my gratitude
Hiding my malice as you hide your face

Why can’t you stay longer?
Allotting me only a few hours a day
Then returning home, leaving me in darkness and sheer misery
Only for me to meet a cheap imitation of you who accompanies me through the night
Loved by some but its glory is small in comparison with you
So I lay staring into the sky awaiting your return

No!
Curse your shiny exterior and radiating personality
Your warm temporary touch and your childhood games
I have had enough
I thought I was lucky to have someone as special as you
But the world and puffs of white can have you
I have spent one too many nights waiting for your return
Too many nights drowning in sorrow and pity waiting for your hand to rescue me

I am leaving you
Your electric charisma is not enough any longer
I will find someone else who is worthy of me
I will return to the darkness that I have tried to cast away
And live in the everlasting hours of darkness
